Chapter 49 - Only I Can Buy You Things (1/2)

Su Yu frowned slightly, feeling conflicted. She was like a lamb waiting for fate to judge her.

Pei Tianlin lowered his head to look at her exquisite face. Her cute appearance almost made him lose control, igniting his desire to immediately pounce on her.

However, he still controlled himself with his strong willpower. He reached out to grab the seat belt and helped her buckle it.

At that moment, their physical contact caused ripples in their hearts, but neither of them went further. They allowed the ripples to disappear and their hearts became calm again.

Su Yu’s face was red and hot, but she was grumbling inwardly.

‘This fellow used to be cold and indifferent, but he fought to help me pay the bill today. Now, he’s teasing me but he’s so distant. Could it be that he’s deliberately making fun of me? Yet, I’m foolishly waiting for something to happen…’

Seeing Pei Tianlin move away, Su Yu sat back down. Her emotions were still fluctuating.

After Pei Tianlin fastened his seatbelt, he took out one of the necklaces he had just bought and helped Su Yu put it on.

The diamond on the necklace reflected a blurry glow, complementing her beautiful face. It made Su Yu exude an alluring charm.

A look of surprise flashed across Pei Tianlin’s eyes. Although this necklace was not considered high-end, Su Yu’s beauty could make this necklace glow with a shine that far exceeded its value.

Indeed, it proved that if a person was beautiful, they would look good in anything. If a person was ugly, everything they wore would be for naught.

Su Yu felt the necklace being draped over her neck and the occasional touch of Pei Tianlin’s fingers. Her neck was completely red.

“In the future, only I can buy you things!”

Pei Tianlin’s domineering voice sounded beside her ears.

Su Yu glanced at Pei Tianlin and saw that he was calm. He clearly did not have much money, yet he insisted on paying the bill.

‘Perhaps Shen Qing’s appearance triggered him and made him feel like he couldn’t maintain his dignity. After all, he’s my husband in name.

‘In that case, I shouldn’t try to make it even with him regarding the necklaces. If I give him money, it’ll hurt his pride.

‘Fortunately, the necklaces aren’t that expensive. It’s fine to accept them.’

“Um, Shen Qing has been my good friend since I was young…”

She did not know how to explain it. Once some things came out of her mouth, they no longer sounded as reasonable or justified.

“Your current identity is Young Madam Pei!”

Su Yu said solemnly, “I understand. Even if our relationship is just a contractual marriage, I promise to protect your dignity in front of others in the future.”

Pei Tianlin frowned and said, “In front of others?”

Su Yu coughed lightly and hurriedly added, “In any case, I’ll be extra careful! Shen Qing and I are really just friends. We don’t have any other relationship with each other. Since I’ve signed the contract with you, I’ll definitely keep my word!”
